Guest Reviews
- Lucas (10/5): - Todo. Excelente hotel.
- Catalina (10/5): Comodidad y confort - La ubicación y las instalaciones Quizás faltaron más instrumentos de cocina (platos chicos, una fuente, etc)
- Uta (10/5): - Ein schöner "Garten"Bereich mit Pool erwartet einen, wenn man aus dem Zimmer tritt. Dort lässt es sich gut verweilen. Es liegt nicht direkt am Strand, aber zu Fuß ist man innerhalb von 5 Minuten am selbigen. Kleinere Supermärkte sind fußläufig schnell zu erreichen. Uns hat es sehr gefallen, wir würden es sofort wieder buchen. Aus welchen Gründen auch immer gab es nur einmal ein Handtuch für den Strand. Duschhandtücher wurden gewechselt.
- Randa (8/5): - Location
- Jessica (8/5): - Die Lage der Unterkunft ist sehr gut. Zu Fuß ist man schnell am Playa Holbox und auch im Zentrum. Leider gab es keinen Balkon (Appartement 6). Die Küche ist voll ausgestattet 👍🏻. Am Pool gibt es 4 Liegen. Den Vermieter konnte man jederzeit erreichen. Wir waren 4 Nächte und man hat nicht einmal die Handtücher gewechselt, was man von einem Hotel schon erwarten kann.
- Ernestas (10/5): -
- Virginie (9/5): - L'emplacement est très bien. Proche du centre. La chambre est spacieuse, propre et bien aménagée. Le lit king size ++ L'eau de la salle de la douche était tiède voir froide. Ce n'était pas très embêtant car il faisait très chaud pendant notre séjour
La cuisine est un peu petite. Très compliqué d'y préparer un repas
- William (8/5): Oui & non - Magnifique appartement emplacement idéal, au calme, très propres, bien agencé, très bien équipé pour cuisiner, piscine propre, le contact via whatsapp ce passe très bien pour avoir les infos est code de l'appartement. Très mal au dos durant nos 4 nuits le matela est catastrophiquement mou, j'ai essayé de dormir dans tous les sens, rien a faire, très peu de pression à la douche, encore ça pas trop de soucis.
- Paul (10/5): Perfect stay in Holbox - Everything was perfect Nothing
- Michele (9/5): -
- barbara (5/5): -
- Ariel Mariano (5/5): Cannot recomend this place - The room was simple but big enough. Value per money: it was far too expensive for a room without cable tv, with a very weak shower stream and not hot enough. The pool was useless because it was also too cold.
And the location: it's far from the beaches so you miss the point of being on the island. It was so disappointing that we decided to shorten the stay in a day.
- Sofia (10/5): - Vi älskade vår vistelse på Shankara. Rummet var ljust, bekvämt och välstädat, liksom badrummet. Bekväm (och stor!) säng och väldigt sköna kuddar. Bra utrymme för kläder och prylar, så man slipper leva ur resväskan. Litet pentry som är välutrustat för frukost och enkel matlagning. Fint poolområde.
Lugnt och tyst läge några minuters promenad från absoluta centrum. Även kort (max 5 minuter) promenad till stranden. Ca 10 minuters promenad till färjan.
Superbra, trevlig och snabb kommunikation före och under vistelsen. Bra information om boendet och en mängd tips inför vistelsen.
Kommer gärna tillbaka och rekommenderar varmt!
- Rider (1/5): Avoid this place. The manager is horrible. - Nothing…. Stay someplace else. The facilities are ok, but manager/owner is horrible. When we arrived, we noticed one of the security cameras was within vision of the bathroom window. When I brought it to the attention of the owner, he told me it didn’t work, but it still had LED light showing, so I found a difficult to believe him. They gave me all kinds of attitude. Threatened to call the police cause we were making too much noise, etc.. it was obviously he just wanted to get rid of us. So we left early and forfeited our days there.
Hot water. Only last for about a one minute shower.
The air conditioner takes forever, so cool of the place down
Don’t waste your time money. Stay somewhere else.
- Manon (10/5): Selon mes amis , tout était parfait! - Emplacement propreté et le personnel.
Mes amis ont été enchantes de cet hôtel J’ai réservé à cet hôtel pour offrir en cadeau à un couple d’amis nouvellement marié.
J’avais demandé un plat de
Fruit et pétales de fleurs pour leur arrivée et ils ne l’ont pas eu .😰
- Daniela (9/5): - Todo :) volvería de nuevo!!!
- Soler Soriano (10/5): -
- david (9/5): Au calme à Holbox - Très bon emplacement, proche de la plage tout en étant au calme
Très confortable (lit nickel et douche top, cuisine très bien)
Absolument tout ce dont on peut avoir besoin La piscine un peu fraîche…
- Nimrod (8/5): - Perfect location
Very nice room Water pressure is very weak in the shower.
- Maria Grazia (7/5): -
- paulo (9/5): -
- Trevisan (10/5): Perfetta fuga - Posizione centralissima, spazi comuni molto belli con piscina e barbecue.
Appartamento davvero bello e con tutto il necessario.
- fkuriyama (10/5): -
- Joseph (8/5): We enjoyed our stay, and Matias always responded to our questions. He was very polite and courteous with his replies. - It was a nice apartment in the middle of Holbox Town with lots of restaurants and cafes within walking distance. It had a kitchen and cooking facilities. It also had a nice plunge pool. The floor was constantly sandy, and it was hard to keep clean. Although we were told that we would need to pay the cleaner if we were only there for 3 nights, it would have been better to offer the cleaner as part of the package. Also, there was no hot water for the shower.
- Denisa (10/5): We’ve loved it! - Wow this was a paradise! Absolutely lovely accommodation with a great pool and so close to the beach and town. The housekeeper was not very happy with us being in the pool while she was cleaning the apartments but maybe she was just having a bad day.
- Jozsef (9/5): -
- federico (10/5): Ottimo - Esattamente come viene descritta Niente
- Susanne (9/5): - Shankara liegt 10 Minuten von der Fähre und 5 Minuten entfernt vom Strand. Der Garten mit Pool ist sehr einladend. Der Pool ist etwas älter, alles andere aber sehr neu und schön eingerichtet. Das Apartment ist gut ausgestattet und hat ein sehr großes Bett, was in Mexiko nicht üblich ist. Aufgrund des Luftfeuchtigkeit mufft es etwas im Zimmer, was mit der Klima aber nicht mehr auffällt. Die Kommunikation mit Mati lief einwandfrei. Es gibt zwei Liegen, was etwas wenig ist – zwei zusätzliche Liegen wären super. Ab und an hatten wir kein Wasser. Das ist sehr ärgerlich, wenn man gerade duschen möchte. Wir wissen aber nicht, ob das nicht ein allgemeines Problem auf Holbox ist.
- Ramina (9/5): -
- Jamie Lee (10/5): - Great location, close to everything yet tucked away up a quiet street. Clean and spacious There are only two sunbeds and small outside area so not a place to go if you want to lounge around the pool however if you mainly want to explore the town and beach it's perfect
- Andrea (10/5): Soggiorno stupendo - Ci è piaciuto tutto ! L’appartamento è veramente bello , pulitissimo e confortevole. Ci siamo trovati benissimo. Possiamo solo che consigliare questa struttura !!! Ci dispiace solo di non essere rimaste di più !
- Carlotta (9/5): - Tolle Unterkunft, gute Lage, nette Essensmöglichkeiten in unmittelbarer Umgebung
- James (10/5): Shankara a small OASIS in Holbox! - Shankara is a small green oasis in Holbox, Matias the host was super communicative and made me feel very welcome, he sent me a welcome guide, suggestions of places to eat/drink which really helped me make the most of my trip. The apartment is exactly like it appears in the pictures (even better in real life). The apartment is large, cosy and chic with all mod cons, the walk in shower was great, the apartment had a super big comfy bed, aircon, ceiling fan, kitchenette, TV/Netflix, table and chairs, a small terrace out the back and the room was on the ground floor steps away from the gorgeous clean pool. Ceci and Jaquie the cleaners were super friendly and made me feel very welcome.
I arrived early and I was able to leave my bag at the hotel so I could enjoy my morning on the island. Check-out day is 11am, I really enjoyed being able to spend my morning having a dip in the pool and relaxing before taking the ferry back to Chiquila.
The location is great, just a 10 min walk from the ferry terminal and 5 mins to the beach and the ‘pueblo’ is on the doorstop lots of restaurants, shops, and supermarkets, bike rental places close by (no noise very peaceful and quiet). I would 100% stay here again! Muchas gracias Matias and team! James
- Paulina (10/5): - La ubicación, la piscina, la habitación amplia y la cocina con lo necesario y limpio 😃. Sin duda volvería 🌴
- Jacinta (10/5): Excellent accommodation with great sized rooms, very comfortable and great location. - Fantastic place, excellent location and super nice apartments. It’s exactly as described and the staff were very hospitable and helpful whenever you needed anything. The only thing that could have helped is a change of towels during our stay.
- Christoph (9/5): Ideal für einen mehrtägigen Aufenthalt auf Holbox - Klein und familiär Dreckige Straße und Umgebung sobald man Tor öffnet und Unterkunft verlässt.
- Laura (8/5): - Great location with just a few minutes walk to the main area and beach.
Spacious apartment with a comfy bed and well kitted out kitchen. Shower lacked pressure and didn’t get very warm.
- Scarlet (10/5): Increíble, volvería mil veces - PERFECTO
- Eduardo (10/5): - La tranquilidad de la isla, la ubicación, las atenciones y disposición del personal que labora en las instalaciones.
- Gal (10/5): -
- Jorge (10/5): Muy recomendable - Un hotel con unas suites/apartamentos estupendos , con todo lo necesario para pasar una magnífica estancia en esa maravillosa isla. Con una piscina muy cómoda y a 2 minutos andando de todo. Super recomendado. Todo bien.
- Berdien (9/5): Prachtig - De kamer zelf was heel mooi, locatie was top maar toch rustig, leuk zwembad Iets te weinig ligbedjes
- Giuseppe (9/5): - Consigli dell'Host molto utili. Spazi comuni davvero belli ed aperti alla convivialità. Unica nota negativa l'umidità.
- Alfredo (10/5): - Super cómodo, ubicación conveniente, equipadazo
- Agnieszka (10/5): -
- Sana (10/5): perfect stay! - The property was beautiful, quaint, and quiet. Felt safe and close enough to lively restaurants (few minutes walking distance) but also far enough where you didn’t hear any street noise. Loved our stay here!
- Pujas (10/5): Excellent logement au calme avec tout le confort - L emplacement est idéal pour ne pas entendre les voiturettes de golf à moteur qui sillonnent la ville. La suite était superbe au bord de la piscine avec possibilité d utiliser un barbecue. Je recommande vivement. Rien
- Bejan Cosmin Constantin (8/5): -
- Adrian (10/5): - La ubicación es excelente a tan solo unos metros de la playa principal. El lugar en general es muy bonito y limpio, la alberca es bastante buena y, las habitaciones son grandes y cómodas. Mi pareja y yo estuvimos trabajando durante algunos días de la semana y el WiFi funcionó siempre a la perfección en todo momento!
Sin duda nos quedaremos aquí todas las veces que volvamos!!
- Silvia (10/5): Soggiorno fantastico - Struttura veramente carina in pieno centro cittadino a Holbox. Camera pulita e ordinata, letto grande. Fantastica la piscina con l’acqua calda. La notte prima di andare a letto era super rilassante farsi un bagno. Staff gentilissimo. La signora prima di andare via ci ha anche asxiugato i costumi in asciugatrice per non farceli mettere umidi in valigia Nulla
- Sergio (10/5): Excellent spot in paradise! - The place was lovely, peaceful and beautiful, with a nice pool to relax outside. The rooms were very comfortable and the apartment had all facilities. It had a great location near downtown and the beach!
- Alessio (7/5): -
- Byron (8/5): hotel smaller than expected but turned out fine, nice pool, relaxed, quiet atmosphere, close to -
- Silvia (10/5): -
- xie (10/5): - The room is very clean, the bed is king size and very comfortable. The building is new and well decorated. Nice staff and very easy to get into contact, replying in minutes! We would expect the room to be a bit bigger but well the size is not the most important sometimes;)
- Mireia (10/5): - Todo, volveremos la próxima vez
- Tamara Carolina (7/5): Estancia agradable en Holbox - La ubicación estaba bastante bien y las habitaciones eran cómodas y tenían todas las facilidades para tu estancia La limpieza no era muy exhaustiva, y no te hacen la habitación de un día para otro. La comunicación con el hotel sólo era por mensaje, se echa de menos a alguien que esté presente en el hotel por si te surge cualquier cosa. Por lo demás, el alojamiento no está mal.
- Eugenio (10/5): La soluzione perfetta per un soggiorno di puro relax - Tutto. Un’oasi di relax, ambiente tranquillo e silenzioso perfetto per riposare e rilassarsi anche a bordo piscina. Camera pulitissima e spaziosa, dotata di tutti i comfort. Personale molto disponibile e posizione perfetta, a pochi passi dal centro e dalla spiaggia ma lontana dal caos e dunque da possibili rumori fastidiosi. Consiglio vivamente per un soggiorno di puro relax e per godersi l’isola.
- Salvatore (9/5): - Camera ampia e confortevole, presenza di una cucina molto comoda e una piccola piscina
- Sherry (10/5): i would stay there again - great location Super Clean!!! outside is nice looks really pretty at night by the pool
- Yago (9/5): Superb -
- Amelie (9/5): Superb - The rooms were clean and pleasantly decorated, providing a comfortable and welcoming atmosphere. The pool area was especially nice—quiet and perfect for unwinding after a day out.
The location is fantastic, making it easy to explore the island and reach all the main attractions. Overall, the hotel offered everything I needed for a relaxing and enjoyable stay. Due to the nice Cafés it does not matter that there is no breakfast or Services offered. I would happily recommend it to anyone looking for a convenient and comfortable place to stay on the island.
- Patricia (8/5): Very good -
- Simon (10/5): Above and beyond! - Fantastic hotel and centrally located. The staff go above and beyond!
- Kiran (4/5): Disappointed - Location was great - close to the beach and to the main square. A disappointing stay lacking any service what so ever. It is a self check in- we expected there would be a reception area/greeted on arrival after a long journey.
- The room itself was smaller than pictured & does not include daily cleaning.
- There was a dirty towel under our sink on arrival & the sink sometimes gave a smell of sewage.
- The dishes were also not clean (I guess that was due to the previous guests).
- Poor shower pressure which was not always hot.
We ignored all of the above facts for the first day and accepted the poor service. Until we found cockroaches in our room… we messaged to ask for advice and was given a patronising response about how it’s our fault & that they are part of the ecosystem here. Which we fully understand, but as a service user who is paying to stay somewhere, we expected better treatment.
Safe to say, we checked out on day 2 as we were more than disappointed & found a lovely place to stay that didn’t have ANY of the above issues.
- Cristina (10/5): Perfect stay, super recommendable - Hotel facilities, location, everything was perfect. We could enjoy the pool, the decoration is super cute. Nothing
- Chan (10/5): greatttttt - excellent location, quiet, cool pool, etc
- Raquel (9/5): Superb - Everything A bit of Sand on the floor
- Polly (9/5): Superb - Great little property, everything was super easy, received the entry code by message and everything was as described. fluffy pillows, towels and all that good stuff. Very clean and well maintained with a little coffee machine, fridge, pots and stuff for cooking including salt and suchlike. Super central, near the beach and little stores and places to eat all around. I was looking for somewhere in a reasonable price but nice and not hostel-y and honestly this completely fit the bill. The photos are very light and bright so my initial reaction when I saw the room was - oh - it looks a bit smaller than I expected - but actually it really is exactly like the photos. they're little studio rooms with a massive bed, little table and kitchen area in the doorway/entrance opposite the bathroom. Compact but honestly perfect and everything you need, I would absolutely stay there again, great quality especially for the price.
- Cheryl (10/5): Loved it! - Absolutely loved staying at Shankara. Only regret is not staying longer. I would definitely book it again
- Travel (7/5): Little Oasis - The place was really nice, close to restaurant and beach, and despite constructions going on everywhere on the island, it was quite comfortable in the pool and yard area. The room itself has a great size, very clean, big windows (no views but nicely done), the bed and pillows comfy, AC worked well, bathroom was well stocked with soap, shampoo and conditioner (smelled awesome), green live plants made for a cozy atmosphere, there was also a mixer to make smoothies. The pool was very clean and refreshing (unlike other pools we have experienced on the island). We ate our breakfast … at the picknick table beside the pool. It‘s not far from the ferry - we walked, no problem.
Great deal for the money! We stayed in room 1, which is right beside the road. We were woken up several times (like 7-8 times) during the night by banging in the bathroom walls (must have come from the wiring or pipes) and it sounded like someone was trying to break in. People above us mentioned that they hear that too on a regular basis. Maybe request a room other than #1.
- David (10/5): Exceptional - Good bed
- Yiadom (9/5): Superb -
